DO NOT STIFLE YOUR HEARTS

 
Ye Doctrinaires and Philosophers of the world!

Do not stifle your hearts with dry and high-sounding theories.

Your loftiest theories are not worth one moment of Divine Love.

Leave your hair-splitting theories to take care of themselves.

Free yourself from the unending disputes about trifles.

All things appear in the right perspective in the final understanding of realization.

When reflected in the intellect, the indivisible wholeness of Truth gets broken into many aspects or facets.

Attachment to one aspect makes you blind to other aspects.

Far beyond the creeds of the world is the simple perception of the Real.

Be no more distracted by words, phrases and slogans.

Collect yourself.

In the stillness of mind, there is unfathomable understanding.
